I grew up in Shelbyville and graduated from Shelbyville Central.  I attended Middle Tennessee State University and earned my Undergraduate and Master's degree while there. I have been married for 22 years to my husband, Matthew. We have two children, Holt (20) and Cari Beth (18). Holt is a junior at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and Cari Beth is a freshman also at UTK.  This is my 24th year teaching.

In our free time, you can usually find us at a sporting event somewhere.
